Help with search head wiring at plug

Post by 3pinplug »

Hi all

Have a c-scope 1220xd search coil that I am trying to wire to a micronta 4003. The colours on the c-scope wires are Black, red, White, Green and braid and the colours on the Microntas original coil were the same as the c-scope. My problem is that when I went to remove the micronta connector that plugs the cable into the detector it was a sealed connector so I could not see what the original configuration was. Anyone any ideas on the wiring / pin pattern to fit the c-scope coil?

Hi Dazza
Yes I have cut it off, only other option I thought of trying this evening was opening up the detector itself and seeing if the wiring inside the detector that goes to the connector plug is the same colour as the leads from the search head cable. May give me an idea of whats what, however still not sure of what wires do what i.e red = TX, Black = rX etc on either search head so wiring it up initially is still illusive at present. Once I have wiring then I will need to determine if its matched or can be matched, have an oscilloscope but obviously no where near that at present.

Regards
